Tom Cruise Running In Every Mission: Impossible Film

The seventh Mission: Impossible film (Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One, to use its full title) is about to be released, and to mark the occasion, Paramount Pictures has released a supercut of Tom’s many, many running scenes from the franchise’s movies so far.

In Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Ethan Hunt (Cruise) and his IMF team embark on their most dangerous mission yet: To track down a terrifying new weapon that threatens all of humanity before it falls into the wrong hands. With control of the future and the fate of the world at stake, and dark forces from Ethan's past closing in, a deadly race around the globe begins. Confronted by a mysterious, all-powerful enemy, Ethan is forced to consider that nothing can matter more than his mission – not even the lives of those he cares about most. Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One is again directed by American filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie, director of the movies The Way of the Gun, Jack Reacher, plus both Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation & Fallout previously. The screenplay is also by Christopher McQuarrie. Based on the television series created by Bruce Geller. Produced by Tom Cruise, J.J. Abrams, Christopher McQuarrie, David Ellison, & Jake Myers. Paramount Pictures will debut McQuarrie's Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One in theaters worldwide starting on Wednesday, July 12th, 2023 this summer movie season. Part Two will land in theaters starting June 2024. Rewatch the first teaser trailer.

Tuxedo running. Slo-mo running. Gotta-catch-that-helicopter running. Evading-bullets running. Running while ripping away one of those eerily lifelike Mission: Impossible masks. Running while reloading a gun. Running into a terrifying leap out of a building. Running up the side of a building. Running into traffic. Running across rooftops. Running through tunnels. Running and diving through glass. Running through smoke. Lots of stairs and fireballs. All the while, his hair looks remarkably flawless and he barely seems to break a sweat—probably not the case for all the camera operators just trying to keep up with the guy.

Par for the course when you are filming a Mission: Impossible sequence. Which is interesting because Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning, Part One isn’t the first blockbuster this summer season to film in Rome. Earlier, Fast X had a sequence where a giant “bomb” rolled through the cobblestone streets of Rome, and director Louis Leterrier talked about the precautions they had to take to protect the historical city. Which is what Cruise and company did, apparently, as they captured the action sequences for the upcoming action sequel. Listen to Cruise and McQuarrie talk about the sequence
